All of the ones I've played are excellent games, but to be honest I've only played Dynasty Warriors, Musou Orochi which I prefer for stress relief and easy customizability (weapon fusion rocks, as does the easily-navigated musou modes), Bladestorm which is a good strategy/tactical action game, and Gundam Musou which I played a demo of and it seemed like a 'robot' version of Dynasty Warriors and seemed pretty cool despite the fact that I couldn't actually sample most of what the game supposedly has to offer.

I don't believe it's gotta be this way,

I chose Musou Orochi, becouse it has all those great characters from Dynasty and Samurai Warriors -games.And besides, I really like them both so what would be better than those two games together :] .
This....is what we are.

none of the above. im gonna say Gitaroo Man, even though it never had a real sequel and branched into a series (PSP remake doesnt count). i think its KOEIs most original game.

I like both Dynasty Warriors and Samurai Warriors. DW because it has more characters to play with and also has more VS modes. SW because there are better items to get e.g get the horses and also it has better system. So both have good qualities.

:sad:

Could you elaborate? This isn't a poll/listing topic, when you post you're suppose to back up your response with a bit of opinions/facts as to why you chose DW as the best series, so that your post is a bit more interesting to read and so that others have more to work with if they feel the need to respond.
Thank you!

Anyway, for me for it will probably remain Kessen because it's their only popular series they haven't milked continuously... >_>
Even though I would rejoice the coming of a new one. :lol:

As much as I love Dynasty Warriors, I gotta say Samurai Warriors. It's what I played the most, and it's probably my favorite. But, Dynasty Warriors is still very, VERY awesome!

Samurai Warriors. It always seems so much more polished than the DW games.

i don't know about u guys but for me it has to be Bladestorm the Hundred Years War. the game was revolutional for me and is the best new title that Koei has made for the next gen consules, do't get me wrong Dynasty Warriors is great, it's the reason i started to follow Koei titles with interest.

DW for sure I started with Dw3 and got hooked ever since. It's also my favorite game series ever. SW and the others are really good series and fun and all but DW has a special place in my heart and always will. I think the characters are all great and have interesting personalities.Hope Koei keeps coming out with DW forever.

For action, NOTHING is better than the Empires series for either SW or DW. Sadly KOEI to a step backward with DW6E due to the poor Ruler mode.

Otherwise, for strategy, ROTK hands down.

Just Dynasty Warriors (that is, up until Dynasty Warriors 5, which in my opinion just wasn't as great as Dynasty Warriors 3 or 4).

For me it has to be Dynasty Warriors. The Storyline (in my opinion) is better than that of the other Koei games, mainly because it based around one of my favourite books of all time ^_^ . I think the cast of Dynasty Warriors are far more easily understood than thoses of other games, for example Liu Bei Fights for virtue and to restore the han in most games he has appeard in compared with Nobunaga Oda who is continually changed from an evil 'demon lord' in SW to the freindly Nobunaga in Kessen III.
Anyhoo overall I think DW is the best Koei branch out there at the moment.
But Samurai Warriors 3 is looking very imoressive so far ^_^

You know the topic title is kind of misleading. I thought you meant the Japan, US and Europe branches of KOEI not the series of games made by them. It should be franchises then, not branches.
Either way I picked DW. I like SW too, but the Three Kingdoms period is a lot more interesting IMO(at least until KOEI adds Matsunaga Hisahide and Mouri Motonari to SW).

^I guess it was misleading, but then again I'd much rather vote on the franchises. :)

Dynasty Warriors (Shin Sangokumusou) was so innovative. That's not exactly it's reputation nowadays, but it's still my favorite Koei series, even though they did a DW/SW collaboration in Warriors Orochi, which combined two awesome series. As cool as WO is, Dynasty Warriors is Koei's most famous franchise, and yes, the music is totally awesome! Forget the third poster!

Out of the choices I've played Dynasty Tactics far more than any of the others. I like the Orochi series, but overall I think Samurai Warriors is the best. I like the history of that period and Koei has done a great job creating a game based upon that. SW2 IMHO has more depth and better gameplay than DW or WO, it sets the standard for the Warriors series of games.

I would love to see a "Samurai Tactics" game along the same premise of Dynasty Tactics 2.

easily DW.
I just prefer this story over SW.
Thje character designs are amazing and I think the relationships are shown much better than any other Koei game.

I also love Kessen, SW, WO and Gundam :D
